 Big Jump 12" x 12" (sold)

Artist Bio:  I have just recently retired from the field of Psychology and re-entered the Art World.  I started taking classes in Japanese calligraphy, acrylics, special mediums, abstract painting and print making.  I have also been obsessed with water after moving from Key West to San Francisco and joining a Synchronized Swimming team. 

 The Monotype Waterbottle Series was done for the "Green" show at City Art Gallery. I hardly ever get political with my art but the environmental issue get me going. Here is an example of one from that series.  Go to the Monotype "Water Bottles" to see them all.


"I'm Toxic" 24" x 18"

I am currently working on a series of Monotypes that involve filling an Olympic Diver silloutte  with various textures and images.  And I am using wine foils collected from my friends and Chateau Montelena Winery was kind enough to save theirs for me from a months worth of tasting room foils. Check em out!


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

"65% Water"                                                                     "Bottle Shock"

 

 The "In-Sync" Series, 2007 some in Oil and some in Acrylic, are mostly a tongue-in-cheek look at the traditional and sometimes old-fashion/kitsch aspects of the sport of sychronized swimming.

Women with their hair knoxed back in buns, glittery swimsuits and way too much water proof make-up, all of which detract from how incredibly talented and powerful these athletes are.
 
The next series, also completed in 2007, “Aqua-Pals”  I did in oil and includes six paintings of dogs swimming mostly from very unusual angles which involved me lying at the bottom of the pool to capture the image on film before I chose which ones to paint. Dogs seem to have a love/hate relationship with the water that makes them look so comical while moving in it.  I find the different perspective challenging and humorous at the same time.
